no regrets going for cf today. during worship, i had time to pray to God and i prayed abt commiting my future to Him and prayed that He could reveal his calling to me soon so i'd know which direction im heading for and stuff.
background info: ive actually wanted to be a vet since abt 2 years back? or was it one and a half. but yeah around there. just that i wasnt sure if that's what God wanted for me. cause it's like my own passion. So ive been praying that God will reveal to me what His calling is for me soon cause like uni's coming up and all.
so back to the story. and after that was sermon and Mr Wee (i dunno how old he is but he looks quite old. HAHA. no offense) was sharing abt how he working in nokia for TWELVE years and one day on an airplane travelling for work purposes, he felt God impress upon his heart "my son, my son, you're always going around travelling. Where do i come into the picture?" (smth along those lines) and then he knew that God wanted him to serve God full-time and so he did. He quit his ever-so-steady job and went to study at Trinity Theological College and is in his final year. how cool is he plzzzz.
but what's cooler is what i got from it. Some people wait till their old, or rather middle-age, when their job's so steady to find out what God's calling is for them. and i realised that all along ive been trying to fit God's plan into my own schedule and forgot all about HIS TIMING.
so this has taught me to be patient abt finding out what my calling is. i believe God will reveal it to me in HIS time even if it means 30 years later. (:
It's also so amazing how God answers prayer just like that sometimes. when you hear God, and when you know that this is what God is telling you, it's just....satisfying. i dont know how to explain it but i <3 being in touch with God and i dont want to (and hope i wont) trade it for anything(:
